after all it was the mormon jesus who got anger and killed thousands of people...

Oh dear the devil made him do it...

Excellent point. When Jesus mass murders tens of thousands after the crucifixion (3 Nephi 9) and then brags about it, he sounds pretty angry.

Even when I was Mormon, it didn’t make sense that Jesus destroyed people in America but no razing cities to the ground in Israel when it was Israel who crucified him.

Wrong, you also have several million members of the LDS who know and testify that Joseph Smith saw Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I’m one of them.

....is that also the way that you and several million members know that there are Quakers on the moon? That Christ appeared in America after his death? That it's a sin that will keep you from gaining salvation if you drink a cup of tea? That the dead will accept membership in the mormon church after some living person is baptized in their names?

Lots of stuff for which, like the "vision" of Joseph Smith there is absolutely no evidence...just that burning in the bosom.

I have a cure for that....

Joey Smith got himself killed by angry men he had abused..

Lets see now ...heres some of them

1. There were the men Joey Smith had robbed and ripped off

2. There were the men who were Fremasons who objected to Joey Smith abusing their secret rituals for his own gain and glory

3. There were the men who were the husbands brothers and fathers of the young women Joey Smith had seduced and committed adultery with..

4. There were the men who owned the private newspaper office and printer that Joey Smith had destroyed..

5. There were the men who lived in Nauvoo who objected to their Constitutional rights being violated when the corrupt politician Joey Smith called out his private army and decleared martial law and shut the town down..

6. There were the men who were members of Joey Smiths religion that objected to him being a controlling theocratic dictator and crowning himself king of the world and trying to take everything they had and running their lives..

7. There were the men who had given up everything and followed Joey Smith to Nauvoo to find that he was just a low class theiving criminal who couldnt stay out of jail of other mens bedfrooms...

Take your pick...

after Joey Smith shot his own brother in the back and murdered 2 men outside, he was put down like the rabid dog he was..

Which group shot back and gave him justice in the death penalty doesnt really matter...

It was ultimately The LORD Jesus Christ who destroyed him...

God got rid of the atheist Joey Smith one month after Joey Smith had boasted he was greater than Jesus...

God does get angry at His enemies..

And you KNOW this HOW??

An emotional experience you had.

There are many MORE folks who KNOW what JS 'saw' were a couple of DEMONS paradeing as Angels of Light - EXACTLY what the BIBLE has warned against thru the years.

Go ahead and trust your 'experience', but for me; I'll trust what the Bible has plainly taught.

“If God evolved, Moroni and Mormon are wrong. If God didn’t evolve, the KFD and Joseph Smith is wrong. Which is it? “ You are.

Then perhaps you could explain the three passages I cites, and why my conclusion is wrong. Please explain. I cannot follow the logic here.

...Joseph Smith “abused” angry men by teaching the truth, they couldn’t handle the truth...

Ha ha ha!

The TRUTH was preached from the pages of the Nauvoo Expositor!

Joe, in a RAGE, had the business destroyed!

Smith died in a gunfight, not as a martyr. Martyrs don’t fight back.


JESUS: Hey Smith!       Remember that boast you made about doing more than even I had done to hold the 'church' together?

JOSEPH SMITH: Where am I?

JESUS: Don't you remember? A few seconds ago you were in that jail.

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh; yeah; but where am I NOW?

JESUS: Don't you remember? Does bang - bang ring a bell?

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh; yeah - that crummy gun I had was about USELESS!

JESUS: I hope you left instructions on how to hold your church together.

JOSEPH SMITH: Dang! I knew there was SOMETHING I was forgetting!

JESUS: Looks like there's a power struggle going on down there.

JOSEPH SMITH: Yeah; there was always SOMEone who wanted the power that I held - especially over the LADIES - wink wink.

JESUS: No need to worry about that now; remember what my friend Matthew wrote down?

JOSEPH SMITH: This? “At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven” (Matthew 22:30)

JESUS: That's it.

JOSEPH SMITH: I thought that was mistranslated.

JESUS: Nah - it was right.

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh well; it was fun while it lasted. My buds will still get it on with the girls.

JESUS: Uh; I'm sorry; in just a few more years; your followers will cavein to the United States government and abandon the 'Eternal Covenant' that you came up with.

JOSEPH SMITH: ME!? YOU are the one that told me to do that!

JESUS: Sorry; but you must have mistranslated what I told you. What part of Do NOT commit ADULTERY did you not understand?

JOSEPH SMITH: mumble....

JESUS: What did you say?

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh, nothing.

JESUS: Well; it was interesting talking to you; but now I must get back to perparing a place for those who believe in Me.

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh, yeah; the Celestial Kingdom.

JESUS: No...

JOSEPH SMITH: The Telestial one?

JESUS: Nope.

JOSEPH SMITH: SUREly not the TERRESTRIAL one!!

JESUS: Nope. Didn't you read that the mind of man had NOT conceived of it? Paul wrote it down in 1 Corinthians 2:9.

JOSEPH SMITH: I thought that was mistranslated.

JESUS: No; it wasn't.

JOSEPH SMITH: You SURE?

JESUS: Yes. Now I must be going: what did you say your name was again?

JOSEPH SMITH: Joseph Smith.

JESUS: Hmmmm. According to my Heavenly FAITHbook, you didn't sign in as one of my friends - sorry, I never knew you.

JOSEPH SMITH: But....

I don’t think YR will be back. It is difficult for the LDS to deal with the cognitive dissonance of their group. Seriously, I’m sure you know with your Uncle, they are just told to recite their ‘testimony’ and leave - believing that there are absolutely NO problems with the LDS.
